The shameless female county magistrate shocked the government and the public

"That's settled then!" After the matter was settled, Yu Jiuer felt much better and struggled to get up. "I have to get everything done before my belly gets big!"

"What are you still making trouble for? Just focus on your pregnancy!" The eldest lady pushed her back onto the bed.

"I'm going to Xiguanying to ask that shameless General Cheng Ming for help! I still need those two thousand strong men to open up wasteland and cultivate the land for me!"

"What? You want to keep them to help you reclaim wasteland and cultivate the land?" The eldest lady was surprised!

"Yes! They are all able-bodied men, great labor force! I plan to keep them in the county, open up the wasteland west of the city, and develop agriculture!"

The second uncle frowned and scolded: "You loser, do you know how much food it takes to feed 2,000 people? Can you afford it?"

"I got some silver in the capital, which is more than enough to support these two thousand people until the harvest. Besides, if we let these two thousand people go back, will the tax revenue in Yinshan be increased? Will the people be able to have enough food and clothing?"

Everyone looked solemn.

Yu Jiuer continued, "I am the 'male' of the Yu family. If I don't work hard, how can Yinshan County survive? Besides, how can I be willing if you don't let me try? What if I can really achieve high grain yields? Wouldn't all the problems be solved?"

The lackey Cheng An was very perceptive and revealed Yu Jiuer's great achievements in making money in the capital, which left everyone stunned.

Before long, everyone looked at Yu Jiuer with shock and admiration.

Is this still the same lazy and gluttonous Jiuer?

It seems that there has always been a golden rice bowl at home!

Everyone asked questions at once, and Yu Jiuer was overwhelmed.

Everyone in the room instantly became her fans.

Well, the speed at which her followers are increasing is almost as fast as her modern TikTok account.

The eldest lady was convinced by the ambition in her eyes, sighed, and said, "Forget it! There is no better way, so let you try it!"

Aunt Qu said with concern: "You just came back and haven't had a rest yet, rest at home first, it won't be too late to go after the old county magistrate's funeral, your health is important!"

These words made Yu Jiuer's eyes warm. The care that the original owner had been waiting for all her life suddenly fell on her, making her, an orphan who had never enjoyed mother's love, feel flattered!

The old county magistrate's funeral would last three days, so Yu Jiuer took some time to find a place to grow rice seedlings.

Whether the rice harvest is good or not, rice seedling cultivation is very important. The low rice yield in Yinshan is also because they do not know how to cultivate rice seedlings.

In the future, she will also study hybrid rice, which is a high-yield rice.

After the funeral, Yu Jiuer, who was thinking about the two thousand able-bodied men, was already extremely impatient. The first thing she did after taking office was to go to Xiguanying to ask for those people.

"Let's go! Let's settle the accounts!" Taking Yutao and Cheng'an with her, Yu Jiuer hurried out.

The worried voice of the second uncle came from behind: "We still have to rely on the care of the Xiguan Camp, don't make things too awkward! Bring some gifts!"

"I know!" Yu Jiuer waved her hand without looking back, secretly cursing Cheng Ming for being shameless!

If she didn't go and ask for the person back, would General Cheng continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb and occupy her person?

They bully the Yinshan people by pretending to be garrison troops. How shameless!

Bring a gift? Damn it!

She didn't ask him!

Inside the Xiguanying waiting room

Yu Jiuer drank her tea slowly.

"Master Yu!" came Cheng Ming's loud voice. Yu Jiuer looked up and saw that the man who walked in was tall and burly, with a beard and a fierce aura emanating from his whole body, as if he was a vicious beast in the mountains, ready to bar his fangs and eat people at any time.

This caused the teacup in Yu Jiuer's hand to shake, and the tea lid accidentally slipped onto the open official robe.

Yutao and Chengan, who were standing behind her, shrank their necks in fear.

Yu Jiuer's face remained motionless, but her mind was already in a state of confusion.

When dealing with Cheng Ming, the more you flatter him, the more he will become more aggressive. It is better to follow the rules!

She calmly picked up the tea lid and raised her eyes to meet Cheng Ming's. She had an accusing expression on her face: "General Cheng has such a loud voice. It scared me!"

Cheng Ming was stunned and thought, why isn't this kid afraid of him?

He remembered that eight years ago when her father was killed, she came to the military camp with the old county magistrate and begged the Xiguan Camp to send troops to steal her father's body back from the coast of the Western Regions. He did not agree and scolded the old county magistrate in front of the child, scaring the boy so much that he burst into tears!

At that time, he thought this boy was useless! But now he looked calm and composed. What happened?

In the past, the Yinshan County Magistrate always acted respectful when he saw him, fearing that he had not done something well enough, but this young rookie actually dared to blame him for having a loud voice?

Cheng Ming sat opposite him, with a slightly inquiring look in his eyes, and said in a rough voice: "The new county magistrate is quite courageous!"

"General Cheng, are you trying to scare me? I'm so scared!"

Cheng Ming was stunned again. The boy said he was afraid, but there was no fear at all in his pair of dark and bright eyes. Instead, there was a sense of calmness and innocence.

This makes him look like he is bullying a child.

Since he couldn't scare him, Cheng Ming simply said directly: "I know why you are here! It's just that the Western Regions invaded again a few days ago, and we have to build a few more bunkers outside the Great Wall. We are short of manpower, and these two thousand people cannot leave. After all, guarding the border is everyone's responsibility!"

Hearing this, Yu Jiuer felt a surge of anger in her heart. If she beat him up now, she wondered if she would die miserably?

Yu Jiuer laughed angrily and said, "General Cheng, if you have any trouble, you can write to the court! As far as I know, the governor of Liangzhou has many soldiers and generals, why do you have to detain my Yinshan people?"

"Can you guarantee that these two thousand able-bodied men will have enough food to survive the winter when they return home? Don't forget that they are strong and eat a lot. I'm afraid that more people will starve to death. At least they have food and drink if they stay in the barracks." Since intimidation didn't work, he started elsewhere.

"General Cheng, don't worry about that!"

Yu Jiuer sneered in her heart, this old fox, he is still ungrateful after getting the advantage, if you don’t know, you would think that the Yinshan people are enjoying a good life while serving in Xiguan Camp?

But this is not the case!

The conscripted men worked hard all day long. In order to resist hunger, the Xiguan Camp gave them and the prisoners mostly coarse grains and sorghum flour to eat, and even meat was rare.

He has the nerve to do just this?

"But..." Yu Jiuer changed the subject and said with a smile: "If you are willing to provide some food and grass for the people of Yinshan to spend the winter, I don't mind asking them to help you repair the bunker before leaving, how about it?"

Humph! Fight with her?

To win against a shameless person, you have to be more shameless than him!

Cheng Ming's eyes widened: "You..."

brazen!

It has always been an obligation for the people of Yinshan to serve in the army. This boy is so shameless!

But when she said this, her face didn't turn red or she didn't breathe heavily. She was calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant.

Outrageous!

Cheng Ming, who was stubborn, was so angry that he jumped up and down: "How can you say that? You know that the higher-ups are withholding our food supplies. No!"

Having expected him to say this, Yu Jiuer said with a smile, "Then I'll take them away! It'll help you save some food!"

That annoying smile almost made Cheng Ming choke with anger: "Ha! I didn't expect that the Yinshan County Magistrate is really better than his teacher!"

"Thank you! Thank you!"

Cheng Ming felt depressed. This guy was not easy to deal with. If they dragged it on, it would seem that their Xiguan Camp was bullying others by taking advantage of their power. So he had no choice but to reluctantly order his subordinates to send some people to hand him over.

After leaving, he still didn't give up and shouted at Yu Jiuer's back: "If you can't afford it, I'm still willing to take you in."

Yu Jiuer waved goodbye and left without looking back.

Underestimate her? Wait and see!

After Yu Jiuer left, Mr. Rong, the military advisor beside Cheng Ming, stroked his beard and said, "Be careful. This term of county magistrate should not be underestimated! Even his grandfather didn't have such courage and spirit."

"He's just a young boy, can he really do anything? I won't ask him for help!" He was extremely unhappy about the sudden loss of two thousand laborers.

Mr. Rong had an unfathomable expression on his face: "Don't be so confident! Be careful or you might get slapped in the face!"

In the first round, Cheng Zong was defeated!
